Opinion: Christine Blasey Ford's accusations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh unlocked a heavy door holding in American women's experiences with sexual assault.

While we are certainly outnumbered by the number of women victims, please do not forget the male victims of rape and sexual assault. We exist. We matter.

Why hasn’t you reported on Mitchell’s report?

Here’s a good read.

But not this one, right? 🤷‍♀️

I was unmoved. She’s a liar.

You guys literally do not care about the truth. You are a disgusting publication

Blah blah blah. Moral of this sad story is that there r no consequences or accountability to the actions of men in power if they deny & other men in power support them. Accountability is what women want, not watching yet another woman get slowly screwed again-this time in public

If only her story had facts backing it up...or perhaps even ONE of the FOUR witnesses she named would corroborate her story...instead of refuting it (one of them saying they don't even know Judge Kavanaugh). Ah well, I guess you can't have everything...

To people who worry that your son could be falsely accused, you should worry more that he could be a victim himself. That’s far more common.

Moving testimony? That missed major pieces of information; such as, when it happens? Why her witnesses don’t recall it ever happening? How did she arrive and return from the event? How can she be 100% sure it’s him but she has no idea how she got to the gathering? Moving😏

This feels like something a high schooler turned in the Monday after a bender. This happens when women talk about assault. This has BEEN happening. We are well aware of stories and of women coming forward; what’s the next step? Where is the opinion piece on making men listen?

No difference between the BS on CNN and .

I have a very moving story about a bridge I'm selling in Brooklyn.

Based on the replies I’d say it’s the latter.

MrsAmy47 Take a moment. This is worth your time.

We've gone from rule of law to Salem witch trials in one short season. Leave it to the progressive statists to weaponize the metoo movement and every other social justice issue.

It should have never been made public without charges being filed. To ruin a man's life with zero evidence is just wrong.

We kinda knew that all that was coming down the PIKE!!! By this time next week, we will have a new judge.

Why is NPR only focused on the 'emotional, MOVING' testimony and not the FACTS?

That's great, but that wasn't her goal. That is collateral victory. It is a terrible terrible shame that what she asked for in coming forward is not happening. I don't think she wanted to change the world. She just wanted to stop kavanaugh, and that probably won't happen. Pity 😔

I didn’t find her testimony moving at all actually she was acting neurotic fake crying one second laughing the next asking for caffeine using that fake little girl voice something is definitely wrong with her but it’s not Judge Kavanaugh’s fault or anything he did.

Good one!!! fakenews

EveryMan who Professesto Love ANYwoman (Mother, Sister, Cousin, Daughter, Niece, Aunt or Grandmother) can Prove His Love by asking ALL OF THEM about their Experience(s) w Sexism, SexualHarrassment, SexualAssault or Rape, AND LISTENING to the Answers, & UNDERSTANDING effect

She looked and sounded like a lunatic.

The wise among us know that there were major holes in her account & that dems & her attys abused her issues for political purposes. If Dems have any decency they'll leave her be. It was never Kavanaugh & she knows it. She can still be viewed as a sympathetic person, for now.

... so that they can be re-traumatized when Kavanaugh is f$&ing confirmed anyway. It’s all hopeless.

Scott Simon cashing in on the pain of actual sexual assault victims. Classy.

when we hear from the women Bill Clinton Raped, then I will listen to your stories. Until then, no thank you.

Cory Booker shoved me and stole my chocolate milk in kindergarten. I want an FBI heading to determine if this was a dream, or if it’s truly a repressed memory.

DueProcess ConfirmKavanaughNow

She laughed and giggled through the whole thing. Meanwhile Kavanaugh looked like a man destroyed. She is a fraud, not a hero. Pick your role models better than that ladies.

Till they find out shes a fraud

She is a liar

Christine Blasey Ford is an American hero.

Yes Overlord, we are no longer people. We are but identities and must destroy all who do not share our cultural identifying markers. To the barricades! Long live 21st Century liberalism. Now bring on the inquisitions that must follow!!!!

More body language Body Language: Brett Kavanaugh Hearing Christine Blasey Ford via YouTube

The truth is these women consider any and all contact with men to be symptomatic of rape. They are basically men haters unless there is $$$$$ in it for them and their family. It is a hoax on man

What’s even more disturbing. What if Dr Ford were not so accomplished or a minority or a recent immigrant, would she be less credible? Would K be more cringy and despicable if he were a man of color and less affluence? Would K even be nominated if we a person of color?

It was moving. If only her testimony would have provided witnesses that did not contradict or indicate no knowledge of her story, physical evidence of any kind, or any other corroboration. None was provided. All we have is "guilty until proven innocent." That cannot stand.

Unlock this body language. Ford body language tells she about to lie

Women for Too long have been made tha "Bad Person" when it comes to Sexual Assault.. is "Look how She dresses,Look how To friendly she is,She's Clueless, etc etc etc !!!!!

spanos_ruth The Me Too movement has culminated in this moment: when a trauma survivor terrified and shaken confronted a man nominated to the highest judicial body. None of us knew what it meant that they brought in Rachel Mitchell. What it meant was they wanted to prosecute Dr. Ford.

Almost as if it's part of the plan ..... EmotionOverFacts

Sexual Assault? Liberals have put MEN in the same BATHROOMS as WOMEN and Little Girls...Try to be consistent at least.

I can mimic vocal tones and cues. A trained professor and doctor of psychology can. Some call it NLP.

*dr ford

AngelicFusion Because our society might actually be one big play right now with intelligence working domestically to generate societal outcomes

Fact : Kavanaugh targetted individual cabal blk op realDonaldTrump QAnon 🇺🇸

She has connections to Soros and extreme anti-Trump activism. Be very careful with any declarations as her motives may be suspect as well as her accusations. FBI may uncover something?

AngelicFusion Does she actually have ties to the CIA or is that conspiracy?

100% UNCORROBORATED by Ford's own supposed witnesses. NPR is now rogue with people from the tax payer funded organization being given top publishing of absolute GARBAGE.

Lol mmhmm.

I don't care about a blue wave or a red wave. There's a feminist wave coming. A wave of womanhood. Survivors of abuse and assault from all genders will not be silenced or marginalized anymore.

It was disjointed and incoherent. This is a smear campaign.

We are not disappointed at this psychology expertise performance!

But could not remember anything else

Meanwhile, Republicans laughed it up...

That door must have been locked with uncorroborated accusations and partisan politics.

Yeah too bad it's all BS

So accuse without any corroborating evidence or police report? Seems insane
